Welcome to the Great Women in Compliance Podcast, co-hosted by Lisa Fine and Mary Shirley.
One of the best things about the longevity of the GWIC podcast is that Mary and Lisa get to build some of their own ideas and traditions. Some are things like “bonus episodes” – a great idea by Mary, the #GWICies, and one of Lisa’s, which is to do her last podcast interview of the year with someone who is not only a leader in the E&C community due to her expertise, but also someone who is always a mentor and support to so many people (including Lisa).
This year, Lisa is speaking with Jacki Cheslow, who was on the podcast a few years back and since then has moved from a large corporate organization, Avis/Budget, to the Institute of Electrical and Electronic Engineers – the IEEE, which is the world’s largest non-profit technical organization.
Jackie talks about her experience with IEEE as a mission-driven organization, which is to develop technology to benefit humanity, and how that influences her role. She also talks about starting out at IEEE and needed to learn a whole new area, sanctions, which then became even more important than she would have anticipated.
Jacki also shares how she had a bit of imposter syndrome when she started at IEEE, She provides valuable insight in how to change one’s mindset from a fixed mindset to a growth mindset and how that can also change one’s view that they are given the opportunity to learn new things as recognition of one’s potential and being open to learning.
